Identifying features

Reasons the product is recalled

The inverters have been supplied with an emergency power supply (EPS) port plug that can be removed by hand without the use of a tool. If the plug is removed or if it is not connected during the installation process the user has access to live hazardous voltage.

The hazards to consumers

There is a risk of serious injury or death from electric shock if consumers remove the EPS port plug and access live parts.

What consumers should do

Consumers should switch the inverter off immediately and contact Growatt Australia on australia@ginverter.com or by phone on 1800 476 928 to arrange for the permanent securement of the EPS port connector so that it cannot be removed without a tool.

A warning label will be affixed to the connector advising of the dangers of live parts if removed.
